Just that really. I'm beginning to hear about this and wondered if anyone had come across more detail on the sources they use?

Thanks Sago.

I've got a bit more detail and it looks like there is no single Canadian Act of Parliament called the Digital Resources Act and that many countries are using that term. The information I was accessing did talk about several "Acts" designed to stop America monetising or holding information belonging to Americans and Canada and others seem to be using this as a bundling term.

It sounded (to me) so good I knew I needed to get more information before I got excited smile
